2010 March's on


The end of March already....

This month we had another great camping holiday at Tawhranui, 5 days of sun (and sadly chilly south westers) with surfing, massive surf (swell from the cyclones up in the pacific arrived) snorkelling and other beach activity, 7 families all up, with the kids ranging from 4 - 15 years. Lots of card games (Whist Nominations) at night, building a real tradition around that.

I have also started 4 days a week working for the Auckland Transition Agency, located at Ak City Council building. I am on the Policy and Plans workstream, and so me and 3 others are busy assessing the many and various policys and plans from 8 Council, and working towards packaging them as part of the work programme for the new Council. Exciting stuff!, plus some organisation design as well.

Alex has been busy surfing, and soccer practices have started for the winter season. We have started to look at colleges for him more seriously now. He has decided to stop drumming, and is picking up basketball in term 2. He is now 5 foot 4, and continues to grow - might get past 6 feet!. His braces are going well, and his teeth are discernably moving which is amazing to see.

Jac continues on her merry way, another year at Activate and teaching literacy has started. She has enrolled for a creative writing short course, so we will see what comes from that.
